Piercing the gloom.
Piercing the gloom.

Late night on the platforms of the dimly lit Tbilisi railway station didn't feel like the safest place, especially when I had my camera out. There were a few non traveling locals using the station footbridge as a means of getting from one side of the tracks to the other, many of which clocked my presence.

Of course I wouldn't normally hang around in the dark on such a station, but my cross border sleeper service was due shortly.

Having visited the station during daylight hours it was soon apparent that most freight was scheduled to run at night. This photo shows an unidentified CME 3 locomotive catching a little light as it runs through the station. It had just come off shed.
